Elizabeth Forward’s Jordan Vasko and Ringgold’s Anna Vogt didn’t miss the awards podium by much Saturday afternoon as the divers tied for 10th at the PIAA Class AA Diving Championships held at Bucknell University.

The finals were to be held last week, but were postponed to this weekend because of Winter Storm Stella.

Vasko and Vogt both finished with 321.15 points, just 5½ points from eighth place.

Vogt, the WPIAL silver medalist, was in eighth place after the first round of dives with 163.35 points.

Vasko, a junior, was sitting in 10th place with 158.55 points, while sophomore teammate Katrina Wilhelm was 22nd with 121.35 points and did not advance into the semifinals.

Vogt slipped to ninth place after the semifinals with 248.15 points. Vasko fell into 15th place with 228.75 points.

Vasko leapfrogged into 10th place in the finals after scoring 92.4 points in the last round of dives. Vogt scored 73 points.

West York’s Erica Sarver led from start to finish, scoring 458.40 points to take the gold medal. Big Spring’s Shannon McCabe scored 408.75 to finish second and Beaver’s Ava Talorico, the WPIAL gold medalist, won the bronze with 387.70.
